I now own a few race cars that each cost more than most people's first home, race as much as is physically, logistically possible, and Motorsports are my biggest PASSION by far, as well as one of my best revenue streams. Sim Racing E-Motorsports are also now starting to be a big deal for us as well. So that is cool. It is all about UE4's very awesome and VR Ready Assetto Corsa Competizione though, right now, not GT Sport or whatever, that's still stuck on stupid and archaic AF console hardware limits.

Can you please post your video's in this thread when/if you get a chance? I know there are at least 10-20 of us who would like you to. They are really educational, and PASSIONATE. New Operators, and Non-PR Vets need to understand how to play the game the right way, and how to communicate, and coordinate.
It is up to Badass Operators like yourself to to build and shape this awesome community and I think a lot of us can agree that you and your crew do it better than most. I think we can all agree that THIS is the best place to discuss the tactics, nuances, mechanics, and other gameplay stuff. Until you get your own forum of course.
We have a year or two or three (Hopefully no more), until Squad really starts to get into full swing and get everything fleshed out and polished, and I for one look forward to you being on my side of the Battlefield at least that long.

I think this was my personal favorite for a long time, so I will start this thread off right by dropping it:
What are some of your guys' favorites?
Any other SL's on here as PASSIONATE about Squad? If so I would love to squad up sometime!

MAKE SURE YOU GUYS CHECKOUT THE BEST SERVER EVER WCT!!

Hello,
We are located in the Pacific Northwest, and are here to bring all Northwest Gamers together. We provide a positive, and team-oriented environment. Based right here in PORTLAND, OREGON!
We have a Real Life Command Center where we run our Operations from, a Command and Control Center for all our Squad, Star Citizen, Etc Gaming.
LINK TO OUR WEBSITE (UNDER CONSTRUCTION - ANYONE WEB DESIGNERS/DEVS HERE?)
LINK TO OUR STEAM GROUP
LINK TO OUR FACEBOOK LINK TO OUR MEETUP GROUP VIDEO OF OUR COMMUNITY HEADQUARTERS
We are looking for Northwest Gamers who would like to play Squad with us, and those who would like to help us run our Gaming Community, such as Moderators, etc. We will be hosting Squad Nights down at our HQ for those of you in Portland, where you can use our Battlestations, or bring your own. We just dumped a lot of money into this place. It is inside a Gaming Bar, and we have full kitchen, and lots of awesome beer on tap.
Also, we are going to host an Official or Unofficial Squad Launch Party. As you can see we have clout with several hundred Gamers here in the Northwest. This number will be in the thousands soon. We are spreading the word, that Squad, is the real Battlefield Game, and everyone should back it.
Anyway, shoot me, or one of our guys a Message if you want to play with us. Right now we are active playing other games, and honestly, we play whatever, as long as we play TOGETHER. That is what this Community and Company is all about: Togetherness.

Bump for the NWG BATTLEBENCH doing some v10 testing for our bros at INTEL, NVIDIA, MSI, CORSAIR.
Just one of 9 Squad Ready ([email protected]) Battlestations here at the NWG HQ located in Oregon, USA.

I heard some shit about roy, just tagged him because he lives close and is a Pacific Northwest Gamer but been too busy with my own stuff (I got loads goin on these days), and yeah people get burnt out quickly, far too quickly due to the whole early release/alpha-beta access model of gaming now.
Glad to see you still on the forums my dude. You reach more people in a few hours than I do in a month haha. I bet I still get more people to sit down and buy copies of this game though. In fact, you still don't get to hangout with me or my bros unless you got Squad them's the rules. V10 and beyond is getting pretty cool!

Hey how about me? I was the first dude on PR that pledged to spend THOUSANDS of dollars and buy 100+ keys/copies of this game? So far I have probably gone through 50+ copies already to friends, family, followers, and everyone who has bought a battlestation or workstation from us in the last 2 years
WANT TO KNOW MORE?
Everyone that comes into contact with me is told, "BUY SQUAD. BUY IT NOW. BEST GAME EVER. SUPPORT THESE DUDES."
I come into contact with several people a DAY, that end up at least following Squad/Waiting for full release.
Do I get a free copy or what?
HAHAHA JUST KIDDING IDGAF AND I WAKE UP AT DAWN EVERY DAY AND BUST MY ASS UNTIL DUSK OR LATER SO THAT I CAN AFFORD TO NOT GIVE A DAMN ABOUT $50-$100 HERE OR THERE
I will support this project nearly as much as I do Squad and that includes spending THOUSANDS on it.
It would be nice to get some kudos or something though since as far as I can tell I am the BIGGEST, LOUDEST, MOST PASSIONATE mother flipping Squad Brand Ambassador I guess, I have not really heard much from @IrOnTaXi @Merlin @RoyAwesome , my fellow Northwest Gamers... but screw it that is not what it is about. It is about supporting the projects that you love and are really passionate about. And this is shaping up to be the game that we all knew they would make for us.
Anyway, I urge everyone to do what you can to support both of these awesome projects.
I will take this opportunity to say that I would GLADLY pay an extra $50-$100 for a "DLC" or something to inject some more cash into this project, and ensure it's success and what have you. Star Citizen model for the win. Start selling TANKS and APC's and Lil Bird's! CHILLOUT JUST KIDDING. Sorta. I really do wish there was like a $20-$40 DLC or something because I just do not see it being fair at all that we only paid $20/$40/$60 or whatever for this. It is a massive amount of work and should be closer to at least $80-$100. This "game" at $60 is a freaking STEAL. At $40 it's just absurd. At $20 (Which I have bought it at quite a few times), is just plain old DUMB.
If supporting PS in anyway helps support our Dev's I am all for it. Plus, WWII is just about the most manliest thing ever, so I am doubly all for it.

Every good leader or commander I have had ever, IRL or online, has screamed a lot and used some very "colorful" language. The reason I tend not to SL these days is I know too well that personally, I, scream, yell, shout, kick, smack, and even execute insubordinate soldiers (fully within my rights as a commander on the battlefield hehe). I am not the best leader in the heat of the battle. Perhaps IRL, I could be who knows. But for an online mil sim fps shooter whatever game, I am just too emotional and invested/committed to winning the battle at all costs! And I know this full well, so I leave it up to dudes like Karma who are much better leaders than I. And 90% of other SL's.
NEW VIDEO IS UP! I am putting it on for everyone to watch and discuss at the NORTHWEST GAMERS IRL HQ here in PORTLAND, OREGON:

Thank you brother.
Lots of work to do on the new and improves Command Center for Squad Ops, but slowly but surely we are doing it:
The new FIBER Terminal is in and so is the new modem, and enough ethernet ran to connect to a full Squad+2 additional Recons or Trans.
I was doing some testing eariler and wondered why my speeds were so low, when I saw that my son had left MULTIPLE Netflix and Youtube 1080p and 4K streams running on three different devices. I swear that kid takes up all my damn bandwidth.

So we are FINALLY ready to start taking applications for LOCAL Oregon/SW Washington Operators! We are backed by some pretty heavy hitters in the industry, and we are here for the long-haul.
Northwest Gamers is looking for the following:
At least one GOOD and CAPABLE Squad Leader, 2 would be great!
2-3 Medics
5-6 Rifleman
2-3 Supporters (Marksman, LMG, AT)
Trans Drivers
Now obviously we are not going to lock anyone down to anything, this is just what ONE FULL SQUAD requires. And at this point we are only looking at doing one full squad. Couple fireteams, some arty guys, trans, recon, medics. Eventually, we will want everyone to be fully cross-trained, but that will never happen. We will meetup IRL, here in Oregon, fairly often and LAN it up or whatever. That is what our little community is all about. Hanging out with friends, and family IRL, and squaddin' up!
Anyone that is interested can find us at the links below and email me directly at [email protected] and MY STEAM:

We have at least a year or two before we focus on this initiative so until then it is all just casual fun having shenanigans with the 4-5 of us who run this NWG thing.

PM me your email addy if you want to chat. I am responsible for design, engineer, manufacture of Mobile Battlestations that are "certified" for Squad. Like the one below that sports an i7+1060 and comes with 1TB of Corsair's Fastest SSD We sell them to UE4 and Lumberyard Dev's so loaded with some very expensive and awesome apps, and some the features.
As far as anything though MSI really offers the most value right now, and is making some truly killer stuff. I personally test and use a bunch of their SKU's, and play mostly Squad right now. I have a lot of information. Sadly, you will need at least a 1060 though, TBH. Unless you like playing at 720p, or less than ideal frames. Even with a 1060, this is still a WIP (Alpha), and that needs to be kept in mind.
I work directly with Intel, Nvidia, MSI, and Corsair, on their Gaming Laptops, and am the only one in the World who is giving them feedback regarding Squad. It is a pretty tough job but someone has to do it! https://imgur.com/a/D1T3A
